Re: Shin Prince of Tennis Spoiler Thread (Next Ch. November 4th)

I agree with you, Yukimura should leave the camp, he's just insanely good for an Ms. BUT, I wouldn't say that "We won't see neither him nor Tezuka ever again", he'll be back somehow (unless Konomi kills him, that would be fucking epic, but that isn't really a PoT thing).

It's more likely they would return to the series or something.

In the anime fillers, Tezuka was a coach on the Japan team instead of a player lol. I think something like that isn't far from canon (for Yukimura). I mean...Ryoga is a friggin real character now and he was from a movie so far from canon it isn't even funny.

Re: Shin Prince of Tennis Spoiler Thread (Next Ch. November 4th)

It's sad to have Yukimira Put in A Bus, but we have a hell of characteres hanging around and it's impossible to develop all of them. And for me Yuki isn't exactly one of my favourites because we have only seen one ability of him, Yips. It's not like a match of, for example, Niou, where everything can happen.

I agree.
But will Konomi even give other characters screentime despite dropping now Tezuka and Yuki?
He has had Atobe and Niou play quite frequently.

He did that revolution thing, but in terms of development, I don't see Konomi doing much.
Its true we have a lot of characters but Konomi is almost certainly going to be neglecting the vast majority of them.

And he has been for the last 50 chapters lol. He might as well change the series title to "Atobe and friends, feat. Niou" because that's all we're getting. Remember that time we saw Echizen (the main character) play an official match in Shin PoT?....yeah me neither. Why have Echizen when you can have Niou just BE Echizen? Hell, Niou should be the only person in this camp and just play matches as every character in the series against himself. Y'know what, screw it. Change the series title to just "Niou." That's it.

Swindler of Tennis or King of Tennis haha.

Konomi started off great with the Team Shuffle(3rd VS 5th) idea and Player shuffle(Momo VS Oni) idea.
I'm gonna have faith in him that he will bring them back. Since G10 VS Msers has been excellent.

Quick note:

Got my Jump SQ today. I may not be scanning raws anymore, but I'm gonna be translating again since I didn't like the last few translations that were put out since they had incorrect names due to the Chinese translations.

Already threw the translation into the dropbox for kaoz to proof (Cause I'm a fat lazy slob who hates proofing my own stuff).

Just some stuff form the japanese now that I can read,

It does seem Ryoma is gonna go at least Rally with Ryoga. Sanada told him not to over do it since he still has a real match to play. It's possible this means Ryoma may not face Ryoga in the suffles now?

The group that translated those raws are from jojohot.com and those guys take way too much liberty into changing stuff. Looking at the original it seems like Wonder Castle was always Wonder Castle (i.e. not something with a different reading versus writing) and in that case there wouldn't be any ambiguity so it was simply changed to Perfect Fortress for the sake of changing it. Those guys do get their sources earlier than other people so you got to put up with them. It's probably a good thing nobody here (besides me) can read all the ads from that site that tells you you need to donate to starving kids in Africa to atone for your sins of piracy (seriously).

The other major group doing the NPOT is 天下第一肉丸子制作组 and their translation looks pretty good. At least you won't see anything that simply has nothing to do with the original.

For Ryoma, I guess he's going to have a tag team match against Byodouin.

I checked the version from a different group, the version from jojohot doesn't even mention the part where Tohno says the execution is not over until the beheading (because seppuku is always followed by a beheading). While it's impossible to tell which is right without seeing the original this actually makes a lot of sense that there should be an implied beheading step after seppuku. I'd assume it's actually pretty hard to mistranslate this if you're constantly doing manga translations (the beheading after seppuku word is very specific and shows up in basically everything that has to do with samurais or even Japanese in general).

I guess that's the price you pay for quick translations. I don't think it's even wrong, it feels like these guys are simply adding/leaving stuff out because they feel like it, since POT isn't exactly something that'd test the vocabulary of the translator.

Re: Shin Prince of Tennis Spoiler Thread (Next Ch. December 4th)

With Oni playing singles against kintaro, that means if there is a doubles match, it wont be the #5 and #6, it will be the 6 and someonelse. The #6 and #4 maybe?? Akustu and Ryoma to match up in doubles against that?? Either that or the rest are singles matches.
